Protect the battery pack against heat, e.g.,
against continuous intense sunlight, fire,
water, and moisture. Danger of explosion.
 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from oth-
er metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery pack; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-
tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery pack may cause irritations or burns.
 In case of damage and improper use of the battery
pack, vapours may be emitted. Provide for fresh air and
seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours
can irritate the respiratory system.
 Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another bat-
tery pack.
 The non-rechargeable battery adapter is intended only
for use in designated Bosch measuring tools and must
not be used with power tools.
 The battery pack can be damaged by pointed objects
such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied exter-
nally. An internal short circuit can occur and the battery
pack can burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
 Use only original Bosch battery packs with the voltage
listed on the nameplate of your measuring tool. When
using other battery packs, e.g. imitations, reconditioned
battery packs or other brands, there is danger of injury as
well as property damage through exploding battery packs.
 Remove the batteries from the measuring tool when not
using it for extended periods. When storing for extended
periods, the batteries can corrode and self-discharge.
 Protect the measuring tool, particularly the area
around the camera and infrared lens, against moisture
and snow. The reception lens could fog up and distort the
measurements. Incorrect settings on the tool and other at-
mospheric influences may make the measurements inac-
curate. Objects could be depicted hotter or colder, which
may present a danger if touched.
 High temperature differences in a thermal image may
cause even high temperatures to be shown in a colour
associated with low temperatures. Coming into contact
with such an area may cause burns.
 Temperature measurements will only be correct if the
emissivity setting and the emissivity of the object match.
Objects could be depicted hotter or colder in temperature
and/or colour, which may present a danger if touched.
 Caution! When using the measuring tool with
Bluetooth®, interference with other devices and sys-
tems, airplanes and medical devices (e.g., cardiac
pacemakers, hearing aids) may occur. Also, the possi-
bility of humans and animals in direct vicinity being
harmed cannot be completely excluded. Do not use the
1 609 92A 3RD | (24.7.17)
measuring tool with Bluetooth® in the vicinity of medi-
cal devices, petrol stations, chemical plants, areas
where there is danger of explosion, and areas subject
to blasting. Do not use the measuring tool with Blue-
tooth® in airplanes. Avoid operation in direct vicinity of
the body over longer periods.
The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are registered trade-
marks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such
marks by Robert Bosch Power Tools GmbH is under li-
cence.
 The measuring tool is equipped with a radio interface.
Local operating restrictions, e.g. in airplanes or hospi-
tals, are to be observed.
Product Description and
Specifications
Please unfold the fold-out page with the representation of the
measuring tool and leave it unfolded while reading the operat-
ing instructions.

Intended Use

This thermal imaging camera is designed for the contactless
measurement of surface temperatures.
The displayed thermal image shows the temperature distribu-
tion of the area captured by the infrared lens and therefore ena-
bles temperature deviations to be depicted in different colours.
When used correctly, this makes it possible to examine areas
and objects in a contactless manner for temperature differ-
ences and discrepancies in order to make components and/or
any weaknesses visible, including:
– Thermal insulation and other types of insulation (e.g. locat-
ing thermal bridges)
– Active heating and hot water pipes (e.g. underfloor heating)
in floors and walls
– Overheated electrical components (e.g. fuses or terminals)
– Machine parts (e.g. overheating due to faulty ball bearings)
The measuring tool must not be used for temperature measure-
ment on persons and animals or for other medical purposes.
The measuring tool is not suitable for surface temperature
measurement of gases or liquids.
